The moment I became a mother….

The moment I became a mother. My mum became a Grandmother and my Big Nan became a Great Grandma or our G G.

It’s moments like these that melt my heart. I am forever grateful to the universe for gifting me the opportunity to experience moments like these.

Until I had my first child I could never truly understand selflessness. My sole purpose in life was now to love, nurture, mentor and raise my children to be confident enough to go after their dreams.

This is the wonderful gift that my mother has given to me and although our dearest G G is no longer with us, I know that she shone the light for my mother to pass these gifts on.

Mum, you are my rock and my best friend and a world without you is a world unimaginable. I’m thinking of you and your strength as you continue on your journey without your rock.

I don’t believe it’s our right to be mothers. I believe it’s an honour and a privilege and I thank God everyday for not only being granted that gift but for having an incredible mother to light my path along the way.

I am incredibly blessed and eternally grateful.

Happy Mothers Day mum. You have given me humungous shoes to fill, I hope I am doing you proud. I’m the person I am today because of you.
